I'd like to change the colors used in Acrobat Reader's menus from that hard-to-read black on gray to something else. I assume I can do that by putting the appropriate incantations in .Xresources. Does anyone know what the correct name of the resource is?

Try
acroread*background: grey75 acroread*foreground: black
That worked perfectly - thanks. But how did you know what the resource name was? Is it necessarily the same as that of the program? I didn't think so - and I looked through all the Acrobat documentation I could lay my hands on for the answer.

In Acrobats case I've looked at /usr/local/Acrobat4/Reader/intellinux/app-defaults/AcroRead to find the ressources. Generally you can use trings <executable> and try whatever looks like a ressource string and prefix it with the name of the executable. This doesn't necessarily work everytime but in most cases. Plus some ressources like background and foreground work with almost every X program.
